Is there a CSS style for horizontally scaling type?
The CSS 2 fonts recommendation and CSS 3 fonts module include a font-stretch property that is intended to provide font width adjustments through a range of relative and absolute values. For example, to make a font relatively more condensed use the narrower value, or wider for an expanded style. There are 9 absolute font width values from ultra-condensed to ultra-expanded via extra- and semi- sizes in between. At the time of writing, no current browser has implemented this aspect of the CSS recommendations. For the time being, the only way to obtain condensed or expanded font styles in CSS is to target specific font families like “Arial Narrow”, but these types are not commonly installed.
